Definitions

  • This invention relates to a feed beam for a rock drill, comprising a profiled beam of a light material, for example aluminium, on which guides, in particular guides of steel, are mounted for a rock drill either directly or for a cradle on which the rock drill can be mounted.
  • a feed beam for a rock drill comprising a profiled beam of a light material, for example aluminium, on which guides, in particular guides of steel, are mounted for a rock drill either directly or for a cradle on which the rock drill can be mounted.
  • feed beams can be used for example for tunnel drill rigs and the feed beam can be mounted on a swingable boom for example as described in EP-B-4837. It is desirable that the feed beam be light and stiff. A beam of aluminium is often preferred. The guiding surfaces on such a beam have proved not to be wear resistant enough. It is known in the art to use wheels on the cradle for the rock drill in order to reduce the wear on the beam. It is also known in the art to affix flat steel guides on the aluminium beam by means of screws.
  • the feed beam illustrated on the drawings comprises an extruded die beam 10 of aluminium or a light metal alloy cut in a desired length, usually 3-6 m.
  • the beam 10 has a foot plate that forms flanges 11 for mounting the beam on a support.
  • the beam has two guide beads 12, 13, one of which, the bead 13, is shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
  • the bead 13 has two surfaces 14, 15 approximately at right angles to each other and there is a rounded transition 16 between the surfaces 14, 15.
  • the upper surface 18 on the bead 13 and a corresponding surface 17 in a groove 19 form an acute angle with each other.
  • a guide 20 is bent of a flat sheet of spring steel and it has the same form as the bead 13 in order to fit on the latter.
  • the guide 20 comprises two guide surfaces 21, 22 with an intermediate rounded part 23. Its ends 24, 25 are bent inwardly in order to fit on the surfaces 17, 18 and the angle between the surfaces 21, 22 of the guide 20 is somewhat smaller than the angle between the surfaces 14, 15 of the bead 13.
  • the angles between the surfaces 17 and 18 and between the surfaces 24 and 25 are acute, that is, each guide 20 embraces the respective bead 12, 13 at an angle greater than 180°.
  • the guide 20 is stiff because of its V-form and it is secured without any screws or the like.
  • the angle between the guiding surfaces 21, 22 need not substantially be a right angle as illustrated but it can be in the interval 60°-120°. Preferably it should be in the interval 80°-100°.
  • the guide 20 is a wearing part and it is easy to replace. It can be replaced without the use of any tools because it is snapped in place.
  • the beam 10 is symmetrical and a guide is to be snapped onto the bead 12 as well.
  • a sealing agent can be put onto the respective guide or bead before the guide is mounted.
  • Wax, grease, silicone or similar agents can be used.
  • the agent can be a hardening or non-hardening agent. However, the agent should permit easy removal of the guide.
  • Figs. 4 and 5 an alternative design is shown. Parts corresponding to parts in Figs. 1-3 have been given the same reference numerals.
  • the edge of the guide 20 that corresponds to edge 25 in Figs. 2 and 3 is formed as a circular hook 30 which mates with a corresponding circular surface 31 on the bead 13.
  • the hook 30 is put on the circular surface 31.
  • the guide 20 is turned into the position of Fig. 4 around the hinge formed by the hook 30 and the circular surface 31.
  • the guide 20 is held in position by the hook 30.
  • its edge 24 can be forced onto the surface 17. The force can be applied to the central part 23 which is stiff because it is rounded.
  • the hook 30 is bent slightly more than a right angle as is the central part 23.
  • the edge 24 is bent less than a right angle but more than 45°.
  • the guide 20 as shown in the figures is bent more than 270° whereas the guide 20 as shown in Figs. 2 and 3 is bent more than 180° but less than 270°.
  • a complete feed beam is not illustrated on the drawings.
  • a feeding device and a cradle for the rock drill (a rotary percussive rock drill or a rotary rock drill) is usually part of a complete feed beam.
  • a cradle is not used but the rock drill can slide directly on the guides 20.
  • the feeding device can for example comprise one or more hydraulic cylinders which, through a wire rope and pulleys can be coupled to the cradle to pull the latter in both directions along the feed beam. Heads should then be arranged on the beam 10, which carry the pulleys.
  • the guides 20 are of the same length as the beam 10, the end heads can simultaneously form axial supports for the guides. Such an end head 26 is schematically shown in Fig. 1. The guides will thus be axially fixed between axial supports that are fixed to the beam 10.
